Beautiful / With These, Heuer Got it Right the First Time

Nice new addition . . . I know that you will enjoy wearing this one.

This is one of my first Heuers, and still one of my all-time favorites . . . there's something about the lume, the hands and the Pepsi colors . . . they all work together, very well. The next execution added the distinctive red-edged hands, but I am also liking the brushed steel version.

Please let me know if you might be able to provide serial number and perhaps a date from the bracelet.

I'm very proud to presenent my latest arrival. A very rare early 1163 GMT Autavia with 1-24 bezel and modified Cal.11 movement instead of the regular Cal.14 normally in place with other automatic Autavia's. The GMT Autavia's are quite striking with their 'Pepsi' bezels and this 1-24 example is in almost perfect shape, rich in colour without any sign of the fade often associated with aged/used examples (my guess is long term exposure to UV rays form sunlight causes the pigment to fade).

This watch is in stunninly good condition, its blend of colour from dial/bezel/hands has me checking my wrist again and again.

I must excuse myself for the average quality photo's as i have only had success previously taking photo's with a natural souce of light. Sadly, there is currently very little sunlight up here in Scandinavia so i have had to experiment (with only limited success) with lighting. I promise to read Paul's photo tutorial and put some of his lessons to work in the future.

My greatest thanks go out to Javier for this fantastic watch, another fantastic trade from a really helpful guy (forum readers may remember my awesome Cal.11 Siffert) - Cheers mate

Here is my new baby - enjoy
